Bombastic, funky, sexy and loud, Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers & Chickenfoot) is breaking out on his own with guitar star Jeff Kollman, multi-faceted keyboardist Ed Roth, and Motor City bass ace Kevin Chown. Together, they comprise what is easily one of the most interesting and unpredictable instrumental bands to come along in years; Chad Smith's Bombastic Meatbats. Their sound creates a new sonic experience with a cutting edge and a plethora of influences, fusing together styles as diverse as classic rock, old school funk, punk, and 70's R&B.

I like Chad Smith so much and his work with Chickenfoot has been amazing, but this leaves a lot to be desired.

I'm really looking forward to hearing the rest of this. I do hope that, on other tracks, there are some extended solos. Jeff Kollman is a brilliant guitarist. Check out his blazing guitar work on the Mogg/Way album called Chocolate box. In some ways, he out-Schenkers Schenker on that record.
